Virginia Dare (born August 18, 1587, date of death unknown) was the first child born in the Americas to English parents, Eleanor (or Ellinor/Elyonor) and
Ananias Dare. She was born into the short-lived Roanoke Colony in what is now North Carolina, USA. What became of Virginia and the other colonists
has become an enduring mystery. The fact of her birth is known because the leader of the colony, Eleanor Dare's father, John White,
returned to England to seek assistance for the colony. When White returned three years later, the colonists were gone.
During the past four hundred years, Virginia Dare has become a prominent figure in American myth and folklore, symbolizing different
things to different groups of people. She has been featured as a main character in books, poems, songs, comic books, television
programs and films. Her name has been used to sell different types of goods, from vanilla products to wine and spirits.
Many places in North Carolina and elsewhere in the Southern United States have been named in her honor.
